The Green Lion Spirit should be one of the weakest yokai on the way to the scriptures.
Generally, youkai can fight with Sun Wukong for hundreds of rounds, and some are even stronger than Sun Wukong; those who are inferior in strength can often fight with Sun Wukong for dozens of rounds.
But the Green Lion Spirit is an exception, he can only play a few moves with Sun Wukong, and this is still in the case that Sun Wukong did not go all out.
In the thirty-ninth time of the original work, Sun Wukong exposed the fake king of the Black Chicken Kingdom transformed by the Green Lion Essence, and the two sides fought hard, but the Green Lion Essence only insisted on a few rounds, and then fled.
The original book reads, "He two hitched a ride, this is a good kill, it is really: the monkey king is fierce, the demon king is strong, and the knife is equal to the stick." One day the clouds and mist lost the Three Realms, just to be the emperor of the dynasty. The two of them combined, and the demon could not resist the Monkey King, and quickly turned around and jumped into the city from the old road."
After escaping back to the city, the Green Lion Spirit also knew that his strength was far inferior to Sun Wukong, and it was a dead end to hard touch, and it was difficult to escape if he continued to escape, because Sun Wukong had a muscle fighting cloud. What exactly should be good?
The Green Lion Spirit decided to perform the art of change in an attempt to hide the eyes and ears of the people and take advantage of the opportunity to escape, and the book wrote that the monster transformed into the same appearance as Tang Sanzang, and held his hands and stood in front of the steps. When this great sage caught up, he wanted to raise his stick to fight, and the strange man said, "Disciple Mo, it's me!" ”
Sun Wukong was surprised to find that there were two Tang monks in front of him, and since this Tang monk was the master, that Tang monk must have been changed by a demon, so he raised his stick and beat him again.
Unexpectedly, the Tang monk also said, "Disciple don't fight, it's me, I'm your master!" ”
Sun Wukong was confused on the spot, and the two Tang monks said that they were their masters, which one was true?
Some people say, doesn't Sun Wukong have a golden eye of fire? If you look at it with your fire eyes, don't you know whether it is true or false?
But Sun Wukong said to the crowd, "The demon has changed into my master, and the gas is the same, which is really difficult to identify." Ru and other secret informants ask master to go to the temple and let me capture the demon. ”
Sun Wukong's fire-eyed golden eye can see through the disguises of all the monsters, why can't he see through the false Tang monks transformed by the Green Lion Spirit?
It is said that Sun Wukong should be able to see through the Green Lion Essence more easily. Why? As mentioned above, the strength of the Green Lion Essence is very weak, the strength is weak, which means that the Art of Change is also weak, sun Wukong may even see through the disguises of those powerful monsters, there is no reason not to see through the Green Lion Essence.
In fact, if we understand the specific method by which Sun Wukong uses the golden eye of fire to distinguish yokai, we will not be surprised.
The fire-eyed golden eye is not a kind of clairvoyant eye, and can see through the essence through appearances, such as the yokai transforming into an old lady, and the fire-eyed golden eye can see the yokai essence inside the old lady's skin. The Fire Eye Golden Eye is just a super vision, which can clearly see the clouds on the head of the monster.
The cloud qi on the head of the monster is different from that of mortals, and it is even more different from the immortals, the heads of the gods are all rui qi, and the heads of the monsters are the yin qi, and Sun Wukong is judging whether the other party is a monster through this cloudy qi.
Since this is the case, the Green Lion spirit also has a cloudy qi on its head, why can't Sun Wukong distinguish between true and false Tang Monks?
The reason is very simple, the Green Lion Spirit is different from other yokai, there is no cloudy demon qi on the head, but there is no difference between it and the Tang monk, so Sun Wukong said, "The demon becomes my master, the gas is the same, it is really difficult to identify."
So, why is there no cloudy demon qi on the head of the Green Lion?
Because the Green Lion Spirit is not a monster. He was manjushri's mount, an uncompromising demon, and the key was that he was not a private mortal, but was ordered to punish the king of the Uji Kingdom, so he was equivalent to a god and a fairy traveling on business, and did not degenerate into a demon.
